13 | default y |
14 | help | |
15 | Saying Y here will allow you to use Linux in text mode through a | |
16 | display that complies with the generic VGA standard. Virtually | |
17 | everyone wants that. | |
18 | ||
19 | The program SVGATextMode can be used to utilize SVGA video cards to | |
20 | their full potential in text mode. Download it from | |
21 | <ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/utils/console/>. | |
22 | ||
23 | Say Y. | |

26 | bool "Enable Scrollback Buffer in System RAM" | |
27 | depends on VGA_CONSOLE | |
28 | default n | |
29 | help | |
30 | The scrollback buffer of the standard VGA console is located in | |
31 | the VGA RAM. The size of this RAM is fixed and is quite small. | |
32 | If you require a larger scrollback buffer, this can be placed in | |
01dd2fbf | 33 | System RAM which is dynamically allocated during initialization. |
15bdab95 AD |
34 | Placing the scrollback buffer in System RAM will slightly slow |
35 | down the console. | |
36 | ||
37 | If you want this feature, say 'Y' here and enter the amount of | |
38 | RAM to allocate for this buffer. If unsure, say 'N'. | |

1da177e4 LT |
53 | ---help--- |
54 | Say Y here if you have an old MDA or monochrome Hercules graphics | |
55 | adapter in your system acting as a second head ( = video card). You | |
56 | will then be able to use two monitors with your Linux system. Do not | |
57 | say Y here if your MDA card is the primary card in your system; the | |
58 | normal VGA driver will handle it. | |
59 | ||
60 | To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the | |
61 | module will be called mdacon. | |
62 | ||
63 | If unsure, say N. | |

112 | If this option is selected, the framebuffer console will | |
113 | automatically select the primary display device (if the architecture | |

115 | always select the first framebuffer driver that is loaded. The latter | |
116 | is the default behavior. | |

118 | You can always override the automatic selection of the primary device | |
